21. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the sixth term is related to the fifth term. [S.S.C CGL 03/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

25 : 264 :: 31 : ? :: 49 : 456

Correct Answer: (a) 312
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

n : {(n + 8) × 8}
(25 : 264) → {(25 +8) × 8} = 264
(49 : 456) → {(49 + 8) × 8} = 456
Similarly,

(31 : ?) → {(31 + 8) × 8} = 312

Hence, 312 is the correct answer.

22. Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the sixth number is related to the fifth number. [S.S.C CGL 02/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

687 : 612 :: 713 : ? :: 621 : 546

Correct Answer: (d) 638
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(Difference between the given number cluster is 75)
(687 : 612) → 687 - 612 = 75
(621 : 546) → 621 - 546 = 75
Similarly, let ? = y

(713 : y) → 713 - y = 75

y = 713 - 75

y = 638

Hence, 638 is the correct answer.

23. Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth [S.S.C CGL 02/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

8:  496 :: ? : 204 :: 9 : 711

Correct Answer: (c) 6
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

a : (a³ - 2 × a)
(8 : 496) → (8³ - 2 × 8) = 496
(9 : 711) → (9³ - 2 × 9) = 711

Similarly,

(6 : 204) → (6³ - 2 × 6) = 204

Hence, 6 is the correct answer.

24. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term [S.S.C CGL 02/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

21 : 196 :: 29 : ? :: 38 : 315

Correct Answer: (b) 252
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

n : {(n + 7) × 7}
(21 : 196) → {(21 + 7) × 7} = 196
(38 : 315) → {(38 + 7) × 7} = 315
Similarly,

(29 : 252) → {(29 + 7) × 7} = 252

Hence, 252 is the correct answer.

25. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the sixth term is related to the fifth term. [S.S.C CGL 01/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

24 : 840 :: 27 : ? :: 33 : 1452

Correct Answer: (c) 1026
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

n : {n² + (n × 11)}
(24 : 840) → {24² + (24 × 11)} = 840
(33 : 1452) → {33² + (33 × 11)} = 1452
Similarly,

(27 : 1026) → {27² + (27 × 11)} = 1026

Hence, 1026 is the correct answer.

26. Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the sixth number is related to the fifth number. [S.S.C CGL 01/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

37 : 100 :: 24 : ? :: 29 : 76

Correct Answer: (b) 61
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(1st number × 3) - 11} = 2nd number
(37 : 100) → {(37 × 3) - 11} = 100
(29 : 76) → {(29 × 3) - 11} = 76
Similarly,

(24 : 61) → {(24 × 3) - 11} = 61

Hence, 61 is the correct answer.

27. Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the sixth number is related to the fifth [S.S.C CGL 01/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

12 : 16 :: 18 : ? :: 24 : 64

Correct Answer: (d) 36
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a : b) → ( a ÷ 3)² = b

(12 : 16) → (12 ÷ 3)² = 16

(24 : 64) → (24 ÷ 3)² = 64

Similarly,

(18 : ?) → (18 ÷ 3)² = 36

Hence, 36 is the correct answer.

28. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [S.S.C CGL 01/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent

(3, 14, 1)

(4, 36, 2)

Correct Answer: (d) (8, 260, 2)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

[{(1st number)3 + (3rd number)3}÷ 2] = 2nd number
(3, 14, 1) → (33 + 13) ÷ 2 = 14
(4, 36, 2) → (43 + 23) ÷ 2 = 36
Similarly,
(8, 260, 2) → (83 + 23) ÷ 2 = 260

Hence, (8, 260, 2) is the correct answer.

29. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given sets. [S.S.C CPO 11/11/2022 (Morning)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent  digits.)

(5, 60, 70)

(9, 108, 126)

Correct Answer: (a) (7, 84, 98)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(1st number × 2) + 2nd number} = 3rd Number
(5, 60, 70) → {(5 × 2) + 60} = 70
(9, 108, 126) → {(9 × 2) + 108} = 126
Similarly,

(7, 84, 98) → {(7 × 2) + 84} = 98

Hence, (7, 84, 98) is the correct answer.

30. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the sixth term is related to the fifth term. [S.S.C CPO 10/11/2022 (Morning)]

[1/97] : [1/63] :: [1/114] : ? :: [1/89] : [1/55]

Correct Answer: (a) [1/80]
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, 1/80 is the correct answer.
